I've always felt that you can't do much wrong in a garden providing you enjoy it.

I grow plants for many reasons: to please my eye or to please my soul, to challenge the elements or to challenge my patience, for novelty or for nostalgia, but mostly for the joy in seeing them grow.

Yup, gardening and laughing are two of the best things in life you can do to promote good health and a sense of well being.

I enjoy the cleaning up - something about the getting of things in order for winter - making the garden secure - a battening down of hatches perhaps... It just feels right.

My basic weeding rule: if they grow in rows they're flowers; if they don't they're weeds.

If there's one thing I can say about my garden, it can always surprise me.

To boldly grow where no one has groan before.

As you get older, you find that everything looks better more natural!

To be the best of all time, you have to do it over and over. I want to keep it up, and then the numbers will speak for themselves.

The most perfect guide is nature. Continue without fail to draw something every day.

My brother is an excellent songwriter, and I play guitar and drums.

If I ever acquire wisdom, I suppose I'll be wise enough to know what to do with it.

The more sensitive you are, the more certain you are to be brutalized, develop scabs, never evolve. Never allow yourself to feel anything, because you always feel to much.

There are so many things that we wish we had done yesterday, so few that we feel like doing today.

You have to decide whether you want to make money or make sense, because the two are mutually exclusive.
